Therefore, my focus has been on more recent books. I also forget to record years until something like your comment reminds me. I'll have to go back through my list of books completed and note other years I've read lately.Bonnie Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07813549471704485150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2991243497567962852.post-66855665143322443652013-01-01T14:44:10.789-05:002013-01-01T14:44:10.789-05:00I love the idea of bonus books - and I note that y...I love the idea of bonus books - and I note that you are obviously more comfortable in the latter section of the century! I found it funny that A Century of Books exposed lots of blindspots I didn't realise my reading had.StuckInABookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10017836017530130716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2991243497567962852.post-67438648161985475982012-03-11T22:37:50.394-04:002012-03-11T22:37:50.394-04:00Ryan, I don't see any time limit imposed on us...Ryan, I don't see any time limit imposed on us, so I'm not trying to complete this challenge in one year. I know I'll read more than a hundred books this year, but a big portion of them will be from THIS century. I am not greatly interested in books from the early twentieth century, so I know it will take me a long time to fill in all the years. I may never finish, but I think it will be interesting to see how many I happen across.Bonnie Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07813549471704485150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2991243497567962852.post-21064016072470464222012-03-11T22:29:06.259-04:002012-03-11T22:29:06.259-04:00I'm not sure I have the time to read 100 books...I'm not sure I have the time to read 100 books in a year, let alone 113, but I like the idea. I'm going to see whether I have completed this challenge retroactively. I bet that in my entire reading career there are still years in the 20th century that are unrepresented in my reading.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07998996750944114185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2991243497567962852.post-36773423806390524032012-03-03T17:48:12.404-05:002012-03-03T17:48:12.404-05:00Good luck!Good luck!bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2991243497567962852.post-59621921981047943402012-03-03T09:03:00.237-05:002012-03-03T09:03:00.237-05:00This challenge sounds overwhelming to me, probably...This challenge sounds overwhelming to me, probably because I am so not good at reading older books!Helen's Book Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01404788769349792460noreply@blogger.com
